The digest appears to have been first written in about 1881, with additions bringing it up to 1897.

Its service in Australia and New Zealand in 1836-1844 is dealt with on pages 27-41. As well as recording the movements of the headquarters and detachments of the Regiment, the digest lists the ships which brought the Regiment to Australia in 1836-1837 and lists the officers serving on 16 July 1841.
